Between January and May 2024, for 12 weeks, 21 coaches from both Leeds Beckett University (UK) and James Madison (USA) participated in a pilot project to supplement an internship experience which they were engaged in as part of their coursework. Using Flip, a video-based discussion app from Microsoft, coaches were encouraged to share and explore their problems of professional practice with others as they emerged. By doing this, we hoped that coaches would contribute to each-others’ framing and developing understanding of authentic and meaningful coaching issues, begin to form networks of support, become increasingly independent learners, and develop a more global outlook. From our position as internship architects and facilitators, we hypothesised that with a greater appreciation of coaches’ issues and interests we could more meaningfully offer timely and bespoke support. As we reflect on this novel project, we deliberate over the practical value of some of the underpinning ideas, limitations to supporting pre-professional coaches in this way, and future directions.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51666,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Hospitality Leisure Sport & Tourism Education","volume":"36 ","pages":"Article 100536"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143176141","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The project began by contacting all Alumni from the BSc (Hons) Applied Sport and Exercise Science degree at Robert Gordon University since its commencement in 2012 (n = 329). Thirty-one percent of graduates responded to this initial contact and the information gained from this and associated follow up led to the creation and implementation of four key outputs. These outputs were 1) a careers journey's document, 2) work placement opportunities, 3) guest lecturing, and 4) careers testimonial videos. The implementation of these outputs was evaluated via online questionnaires.</div><div>When asked to evaluate the careers journey's document 90% of students found it useful, and 92% agreed it encouraged them to think about their future career. Six of the eight students who completed a work placement created by the project reported it was beneficial to work with a graduate and all the placement supervisors who responded reported that being a graduate from the course helped them as a placement supervisor. Ninety nine percent of students fed back positively that they found live guest lectures from alumni interesting, and 89% reported that they would like to hear from more graduates in the future. When evaluating the use of video snippets from graduates rather than live guest lectures there were no significant differences in the evaluation responses (P &gt; 0.05). Ninety six percent of students found the careers testimonial videos interesting, and 71% were encouraged to act regarding their own career/personal development.</div><div>In conclusion, the use of alumni enhanced student's knowledge of career options and pathways post-graduation, it encouraged students to think about and take action regarding their future careers.

However, in an era of diminished opportunities, AI, culture wars, and information saturation, graduates who can combine theoretical knowledge and advanced critical thinking skills with a global outlook and multicultural awareness are more attractive to international sport organizations (Cook, 2022). In this article, I adopt a story analysis approach to reflect upon the co-creation of a learning environment designed to enhance Sport Management students' critical thinking skills and their employability. We began by adopting Freire's (1970) critical pedagogy framework to co-produce a series of debates enabling first-year students to explore and resolve contentious popular culture issues. The initial response was unenthusiastic, sports management students asked why they were debating global politics and popular culture. However, through constant encouragement, we achieved the desired pedagogic outcomes where first-year students quickly progressed from information takers to critical thinkers with global awareness.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51666,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Hospitality Leisure Sport & Tourism Education","volume":"36 ","pages":"Article 100537"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143176140","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Drawing on Creative Analytic Practice we offer a series of vignettes crafted by our graduate students leading up to and following a two-day symposium co-hosted by the Tourism Education Futures Initiative (TEFI) and Tourism RESET. Our findings reveal the effectiveness of practicing an ethic of care to challenge neo-liberal values and agendas in the academy by focusing on attentiveness (listening and including graduate students) and responsiveness (including engaging and co-designing responses) with our tourism graduate students. We conclude by exploring how we may recenter care by creating spaces for our students to share their engagement in a care-based symposium.
